Actinote thalia
Actinote thalia is a butterfly of the family Nymphalidae. It was described by Carl Linnaeus in the 1758 10th edition of Systema Naturae. It is found in most of South America. An attempt was made by the South African programme to defoliate the Chromolaena odorata, a shrub of Neotropical origin, by this species, but was disqualified due to an unacceptably wide host range.[1]

gollark: Yes, but WASM is probably implemented such that it can just handle it as a byte array.
gollark: It just gets a regular byte array directly. Or at least is probably implemented that way.
gollark: Shouldn't.
gollark: It doesn't, actually.
